probably get triple points and 1000 extra points as well if you look around - works out even less!

I've just bought this one which is a Panasonic NV-GS27 DV camcorder from Comet for £179. So dinky it fits in my handbag and I can carry it around wherever I go. 30X optical zoom and USB port.

I bought the JVC GRDX67 just over a year ago, and found the footage taken indoors or in low light was visibly grainy. Needless to say I got rid of it, on Ebay.

I got this one. Not that happy with it. The screens too small to see, the battery life is terrible and having had it for about 18 months, it seems to have a llife of its ow and the pictures alternate between light/dark. Sort of like macrovision when you've copied a video.
